                              PROSPECTUS SUPPLEMENT

[Cross  reference:   This  supplement   relates  to  the  Richland  County  Bank
Prospectus,  filed as part of Form S-4EF,  Registration No. 333-63595,  accepted
September 17, 1998, effective October 7, 1998.]

     On page 24 of the Prospectus,  under "Executive  Compensation,"  footnote 3
states that there was no Bank  President  in 1995 and 1996.  This is  incorrect.
Martin Paust was Bank  President in 1995 and 1996. He died in December 1996, and
therefore  there are no  compensation  amounts listed for  "President" for those
dates in the summary compensation table.

     In addition,  the Prospectus  should have contained a copy of the Notice of
Special  Meeting  of  Shareholders  immediately  before  the Table of  Contents.
Following is a copy of that Notice:
